Configuration Conflicts
The Setup program and the System Configuration Utility program
only configure the system hardware. These programs do not
consider the requirements of the operating system or the application
programs. See “Resolving Software Configuration Conflicts” on
page 63 for additional information.
Resolving Hardware Configuration Conflicts
Use the following information to help resolve hardware
configuration conflicts:
1. Run the System Configuration Utility program to view and
change the resources that are used by the system board
functions. Record the current settings before making any
changes. (See “Starting the System Configuration Utility
Program” on page 47 for instructions.)
2. Determine which adapter or device is causing the error. Use the
Change Configuration Settings selection in the System
Configuration Utility program to update system configuration
information (.CFG) files. (See “Step 3: Change Configuration
Settings” on page 49 for instructions.)
3. Change configuration resource allocations. Use the Change
Configuration Settings selection in the System Configuration
Utility program to view or change system-board resource
allocations. (See “Step 3: Change Configuration Settings” on
page 49 for instructions.)
4. Change adapter jumpers or switches. Jumpers and switches
define the system resources that a device can use. If the settings
are incorrect or set to use a resource that cannot be shared, a
conflict occurs and the device remains deactivated. Use the
Switch/Jumper Settings selection in the System Configuration
Utility program to verify switches (see “Step 5: Switch/Jumper
Settings” on page 50). If a change is required, see “Changing
Jumper and Switch Settings” on page 289. In addition, read the
documentation that came with the device.
5. Change system board jumpers or switches. If a change is
required, see “Setting System-Board Configuration Switches” on
page 299.
